บท 144: Arrogant Mia

The issue of Natalie's past plagiarism didn't end with a simple Q&A session with the reporters. They were determined to dig up more dirt on Natalie, as they were already on Briena's side and had cast Natalie as the villain.

In the lead-up to the national perfume creator competition, the media aimed to blow the situation out of proportion, involving more people and gathering additional material for their stories. The bigger the scandal grew, the harder Natalie would fall—eventually being branded as a thief, making it unlikely that anyone would ever work with her again.

The reporters discovered that the new company Natalie was working with on her perfume project belonged to Mia Wilson, the daughter of one of the four most powerful families in Imperial City. This revelation added an unexpected twist.
